CavControl trim is a cost-effective solution that effectively minimizes cavitation damage to valve components by controlling the location and concentration of cavitation vapor bubble implosion in an area away from metal parts.

 

It is designed to fit standard Valtek bodies, with both pressure-balanced and unbalanced trims available, ensuring easy maintenance, reliability, performance, and high interchangeability of parts with other valve models.

Technical Data

  • Brands: Valtek, Valtek EMA
  • CavControl trim utilizes small, diametrically opposed flow holes through the walls of a special seat retainer.
  • Stepped holes are used to ensure orifice-type flow, with the vena contracta established externally rather than inside the retainer.
  • The turbulence of the impinging flow promotes the collapse of vapor bubbles at the center of the seat retainer.

Advantages

  • Controls cavitation damage
  • Isolates cavitation bubbles away from metal parts
  • Simple, straightforward designs requiring no special tools

Applications

Suitable for applications where cavitation is a concern, ensuring prolonged valve life and reliability.
